Through the sport of table tennis, we infuse, leadership, team work, fair play, and health related fitness into our lesson plans. We teach table tennis as it should be taught.
The American Youth Table Tennis Organization, a 501(c) (3) organization, was founded in May 2001 by a group of table tennis enthusiasts, with the purpose of introducing the Olympic Sport of Table Tennis to disadvantaged youth.
What started out as one small successful program at the Hoe Avenue Boy's and Girl's Club has expanded to a New York city-wide initiative in which AYTTO has coordinated over 20 after-school and in- school programs for York York City public schools, Boys and Girls Clubs, and Public School Athletic Leagues.
Over the past two years, AYTTO has provided quality instruction to over 1,500 children in various low income areas of New York City including the Lower East Side, South Bronx, East New York, Red Hook, Harlem, Greenpoint, and Bushwick.In 2010 we introduced a middle school league to 16 New York City public middle schools.

Make your money go further when buying photography equipment, by following our camera price buster advice...
Shop around
Prices vary wildly between dealers. Some retailers may be cheaper for one model but more expensive for something else, so it pays to visit a number of shops and compare prices.
Buy last year's model
Compact cameras only have a six-month lifespan. When new ones come out the old ones get discounted. Often there's little difference between an older model and its replacement and last year's model may still suit your needs.
Buy from specialist photo retailers
You're more likely to find staff who know what they're talking about at a specialist photo dealers. This increases the chance of you getting the right camera for your needs.
Stick with the brand names
Stay clear of cameras from brands you've never heard of. They're likely to have been made on the cheap using outdated or low-spec components, and the brand is just a marketing name.
Be wary of grey imports
If an online deal seems too good to be true then maybe it is. Some online retailers dodge tax laws by selling non UK cameras. This may mean you won't be given an English instruction manual, the wrong plug may be on the charger and you may find you get little support from the UK distributor if it goes wrong.
Try before you buy
Never buy a DSLR without handling it in a shop first. Find one that fits in your hand comfortably and has just the right button placement for your fingers.
Get advice
Go online and read reviews from photography and tech sites such as ours, or our sister sites, Amateur Photographer and Trusted Reviews, so that you're sure the camera you're thinking of is the one you needs. You should also check out user reviews and ask advice from people who actually own the camera and have used it over a period of time.
Before you buy you may also want to consider checking out our range of other buying advice for camera equipment:
- Best camera deals of the week
- Best budget compact cameras for less than £100
- Best digital camera under £300

Rated 4 out of 5 by 4 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Martha Bag with casual vibe and nice buckle closure I bought this bag in a dark, navy/teal color. The edges of the leather are raw, giving it a more casual vibe than I had expected, especially as the buckle is quite nice. Not sure when/where I would use this bag, as it is too informal for a luncheon/work event. Would be cute going out at night with friends, or during the day in a more casual setting...Price is a little high for what it is... January 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kitty202 The Perfect Bag Love this bag, the size is perfect and the color is beautiful!!!! January 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ECC1 Excellent quality and design Over delivers for the price actually. Beautiful craftsmanship, too many compliments to count. Thanks for a great, stylish handbag. November 28, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Jennis8 gorgeous leather, bad zipper I bought this handbag in both colors since I could not decide looking at the website which I would prefer. The leather on both is gorgeous and creamy. However, the zipper on both bags is dime store quality. Why take a gorgeous handbag and ruin it with a skimp on the last detail? These bags will be oging back. July 9, 2013

The idea for The Workshop was born over dinner in September. Artists Dan VanLandingham, Lauren Coggins-Tuttle, Terry Crimmen and Tara Kenny were planning to rent a space together next spring but when a building became available on the Vineyard Haven waterfront, they leaped at it, paintbrushes at the ready.
It may not be obvious what a garter, a spool of thread, yellow lace, old keys, feathers, antique sheet music and cowry shells all have in common, but once inside Suesan Stovall's garage-converted art studio, it becomes clear.
Just after a Labor Day tradition of breakfast at Art Cliff Diner with friends, Don McKillop and Susan Davy sit together on a navy leather couch in their living room. Paintings cover the walls, sculptures rest on end tables and a rack of postcards stands tall in the corner. In addition to this being their living room, it is also the Dragonfly Fine Arts Gallery which the couple owns and operates.
Columbus Day weekend will mark an end and herald a beginning for Mr. McKillop and Ms. Davy.
Last year the North Water Gallery in Edgartown held a plein air event that included several of their artists taking to the streets of Edgartown during a weeklong period and producing works of art to be sold at the end of the week. Art lovers enjoyed the event so much that this year it has been expanded to include the Christina Gallery and Piknik Art and Apparel, both also located in Edgartown.
The Gay Head Gallery is nestled amid a stand of scrub oak along State Road in Aquinnah. An electric vehicle charges in the driveway and inside the cozy home/gallery artwork hangs on every wall. The art depicts scenes from around the Island — a thunderstorm rolls in over the south shore, a stiff wind blows through a green pasture. But the art, while beautiful, doesn't just please the eye. The current show is called Changing Coastlines, and the art details the way that erosion is shaping, re-shaping and, in some cases, destroying the Martha's Vineyard coastline.
Julian Wise sits examining a series of photographs in his new store Island Images located in Oak Bluffs.
"Out of all of them, these four are good enough," he says. "I could use them professionally in the gallery."
The pair of photographers nod as Mr. Wise explains to them what works about their pictures. He encourages the artists to go with their gut, bring in a few more photographs and he will sell the work in the gallery.
Sabine and Simone Geary, aged 15 and 13 respectively, gather their portfolios and head out.
Kate Feiffer has made a name for herself writing children's books and even transforming one of her books, My Mom Is Trying to Ruin My Life, into a play that ran off-Broadway this winter. The daughter of famed illustrator Jules Feiffer, she has not nudged up against his domain. Until now, that is.
On Saturday, August 17, Ms. Feiffer unveils her own talent with illustrations at the Vineyard Playhouse gallery located at 24 Church street in Vineyard Haven. The opening reception is from 4 to 8 p.m. and the exhibit will continue through August 29.
In 1985 painter Andrew Moore spent his first full year on Martha's Vineyard. He lived in a one-room cottage that housed the essentials: a bed, a wood stove, an easel, his dog and a surfboard. Mr. Moore had recently graduated with his bachelor's degree in architecture and this was his leap into a life of full-time painting.

Taylor-Piliae RE, Haskell WL,
Tai Chi is a form of exercise that has recently been gaining popularity as a way to relieve and/or manage back pain and neck pain. It is often easy to associate Tai Chi with groups of people in parks or gyms moving slowly and deliberately in synchronization. These people are using the same Tai Chi principles and movements created in ancient China and still practiced all around the world as a healing exercise.
By Pat Carney
CNN Headline News
(CNN) -- When it comes to working out, no exercise regimen is "one size fits all," but one particular martial art form comes pretty close.
According to a review article in the Archives of Internal Medicine, the ancient martial art of Tai Chi not only improves strength, balance and flexibility in older people, but it also has positive effects on chronic health conditions like multiple sclerosis and joint problems.
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2004 December; 1(3): 223–232.

Tai chi, the slow, graceful Chinese exercise program that is sometimes called a "moving meditation," was originally created centuries ago as a martial art. It does appear to have some health benefits, though rigorous studies are hard to come by.

At its Tuesday meeting, the council authorized economic development incentives for both Creedmoor Sports and North American Bus Industries.
The council approved a $15,000 incentive to Creedmoor Sports, which moved its operations from California to a facility at McClellan earlier this year, and a $100,000 incentive to North American Bus Industries, part of an agreement with the state to aid in the company's expansion. The total agreement between the city, state and NABI calls for $400,000 in reimbursements.
"It was worthwhile" said City Manager Don Hoyt of the incentives.
Creedmoor Sports, he said, is "going to be a growing business, and we want them here. And that's what the incentives are for."
Hoyt said the agreement with NABI was made with the state some years ago, but the company wasn't able to receive the incentive until it met certain job growth thresholds.
Herb Clark, executive vice president for human resources at NABI, said the expansion is part of bringing the company's operations from Budapest, Hungary, where it built parts of its buses to the United States.
"We're building all (of) the bus in (the) U.S. now," he said.
To accomplish this, said Clark, NABI invested $6.3 million in new tooling and equipment that enabled the Anniston plant to produce low-floor buses that range from 30 to 60 feet in size.
"We were able to expand the business, and we were able to hire over 200 people," he said,
Allen Roberts, senior bid administrator at NABI who was at Tuesday's Council meeting, said the expansion has been a couple of years in the making, and the transition from Hungary is still ongoing.
Clark said the expansion has required hiring a large number of welders. He said NABI's welding operations are unique, and require a great deal of training.
In addition to investments in equipment, some of the funding will reimburse NABI for training these new employees.
"North American Bus Industries has made a huge investment in their facility and has expanded and continues to expand their employment base," said Don Hopper, executive director of the Calhoun County Economic Development Council. "It's a tremendous advantage to our community."
Hopper noted that NABI is one of the largest industrial employers in the county.
Attempts Tuesday to reach Dennis DeMille, general manager of Creedmoor Sports, and state officials with knowledge of the NABI agreement were unsuccessful.
In other business, the council:
— Removed from the agenda an agreement with Allied Waste Services of Anniston in order to add curbside recycling as a service to the city's residents.
— Authorized reimbursements to city officials for expenses incurred while traveling away from the city.
— Authorized the city manager to execute a professional services agreement with Douglas J. Watson for consulting services, which include evaluating the planning and management of the city's resources and programs. Councilmen Jay Jenkins and David Reddick voted against the measure.
— Approved an off-premises retail beer application for the Express Mart 29 located at 3612 Old Birmingham Highway.
— Approved closing 13th and 14th streets between Moore and Gurnee avenues and
Gurnee and Moore avenues between 13th and 14th streets from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on June 15 for the Family Heritage Festival in Zinn Park.

Horner syndrome is a rare disorder that occurs when certain nerves that travel from your brain to your eyes and face are damaged.
Horner syndrome isn't a disease itself. Rather, it's a sign of another medical problem — such as a stroke, tumor or spinal cord injury. In some cases, however, no underlying cause can be found.
Horner syndrome usually affects only one side of your face. Typical symptoms of Horner syndrome include a drooping eyelid, decreased pupil size and decreased sweating on the affected side of your face.
There's no specific treatment for Horner syndrome. Instead, treatment is directed at the underlying cause, when possible.
Signs and symptoms of Horner syndrome usually occur on one side of your face and typically include:
Rarely, a baby may be born with Horner syndrome. In these cases, the iris in the affected eye may be lighter in color than the other eye.
If you notice any signs or symptoms associated with Horner syndrome, see your doctor.
Horner syndrome is caused by damage to the sympathetic nerves of your face and eyes. Sympathetic nerves control your body's circulation and sweating. Depending on where the nerves are damaged, Horner syndrome is often classified in two groups.
Sympathetic nerves in your face start in an area of your brain known as the hypothalamus, travel through the brainstem and then down your spinal cord to enter your chest. This is the first half of their "route." Possible causes of nerve damage in this area are:
From your chest, your sympathetic nerves go back up your neck, next to the main arteries that deliver blood to your head (carotid arteries), into your skull and then to your eyes. Nerve damage in this area may be caused by:
Although Horner syndrome may be a sign of one of these conditions, in some situations, a specific cause can't be found. This is known as idiopathic Horner syndrome.
You're likely to start by seeing your family doctor. However, in some cases when you call to set up an appointment, you may be referred to a neuro-ophthalmologist or a neurologist — a doctor who specializes in nervous system disorders, including diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles.
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well-prepared for your appointment.
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions will help you make the most of your time together. List your questions from most important to least important in case time runs out. For Horner syndrome some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on later. Be as specific as you can when answering. Your doctor may ask:
Avoid doing anything that seems to worsen your symptoms.
To diagnose Horner syndrome, your doctor will start by asking about your medical history and doing a complete physical examination.
If you have Horner syndrome, your pupil will open (dilate) slower than normal. Your doctor may evaluate this by placing drops of medication in your eye that force your pupil to dilate. The way the pupil responds to the eye drops will help confirm or deny a diagnosis of Horner syndrome. If Horner syndrome is confirmed, such testing may help determine where the location of the problem in the sympathetic pathway is located. This testing is often done by an eye doctor (ophthalmologist).
A physical exam and pupil dilation test can confirm a diagnosis of Horner syndrome. However, to find the underlying cause of Horner syndrome you'll likely need other tests. Depending on your situation, these may include:
There's no specific treatment for Horner syndrome. Treatment depends on the cause. Often, Horner syndrome disappears when an underlying medical condition is effectively treated.
If you're having difficulty seeing out of the affected eye, your doctor may recommend that you be monitored by an eye doctor (ophthalmologist).

I'll add that after running only Windows servers in my network for many years, I've now seen CentOS 4.5 running excellently for over a year. I'm very impressed at it's reliability and performance. Of course, I have to have the GUI even though I use the command line now most often. It just feels like a real OS with a GUI. Old habits die hard... :)
I would recommend Linux-Based Server particularly (Cent-OS). Try installing the server with GUI on it so that you will be comfortable in administration. But it's best to put the server in non-GUI mode. Helps optimize the performance of your server. Check on the RubyOnRails website for more info for setting up your server.
BTW I have all production and development servers running in Cent-OS. No issues whatsoever.
FYI: there are more gem support for LINUX based system one good example is Rmagick
It is true that most Windows Platform makes IT a hell of time wasted for configuring an open source inside of it specially on vulnerabilities.
I myself setup up my x86 with linux box(CentOS 4.6) on my test machine and it is so cool. Hoping this will be my start as an open source advocate real time.....
I have to agree with saurabh. I'm a Windows/MSSQL admin and I tried to get something reliable going on a Windows server... too many headaches and I wasn't comfortable. I wanted to sleep through the night. It was painful learning Linux, Apache, nginx, Mongrel, monit, Capistrano, Ruby, Rails, etc. etc. etc. all at once to get the site deployed but there is more on the internet to help you along with all of this.
But I'll be honest. For Windows folks, the first few weeks of all this is I.T. hell! But like everything it gets easier.
I'm running Centos 4 on very nice Dell servers with nginx/mongrel clusters and MySQL on it's own nice Dell server, all with loads of RAM (16gb each). Performance is awesome of course. I can't say if there is a performance difference as I have not much basis for comparison. Though MySQL impresses me compared to the behemoth that is MSSQL.
instead of windows server 2003, the linux server will be more advantageous as, 1. Most of the libraries are available for linux(video/audio conversions) 2. The linux systems are less pron to virus attacks and said to be more secured 3. There are number of tools available for deployment on linux for example
3.1 Capistrano (www.capify.org)
3.2 Cruise control (http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net)
Please refer them or feel free to ask further... saurabh(dot)purnaye(at)gmail(dot)com
Thanks for your reply Tommy , Is there any performance advantage of using Linux over Windows 2003 ?
Also would like to get help on mongrel cluster limitation , is there an physical/theoretical constraint exist on the number of mongrel cluster we can have for a application or to put it in other way, what factors decides the number of mongrel cluster for an application?
(Sorry i am a newbie in server configuration / app deployment , so any reply will be highly appreciated )
What type of machine is it?
I recommend against using Windows 2003 Server. Can you install Linux(i personally like CentOS) over it?
The application is an online bookstore, i have abt 2 million books in the database, the books are mostly technical in nature, i mean i will be concentrating on students and tech. professionals as users. I am more concerned abt the speed of the application,The database is huge and i will be running a lot of automated backend processes like books price calculation ect... at regular intervals say once in every fortnight.
If you need more info abt the app please feel free to ask.
Can someone help me with the best configuration recommended for hosting a ruby on rails application?
Basically i require the following infos ( i am planning to use windows 2003 server )
1> Server hardware configuration? 2> Rails stable production version 3> Version of apache 4> Number of Mongrel clusters?
is there any limitation on number of mongrel clusters we can have running in an application?
do we have any open source tool for doing performance/load testing for RoR apps.
Thanks a lot.

When writing an article advising people, you have to ensure that you sound credible otherwise people will not be likely to take your words on board. See the following article about what not to do when buying a house.
It can become a tricky process if not done correctly or if you avoid using professional help. When you buy a house, there are plenty of tips and short cuts you can follow in order to make the process as easy and fast as possible. Here are some things you can be sure to avoid when you purchase your next home.
The most common error realtors see is a potential house buyer overestimating their budget. Don't be unrealistic with your funds or your expectations. Another important aspect to keep in mind is your credit score. You need to get an accurate overview of what your credit score actually is so you aren't surprised or confused when you apply for a home. You might not end up getting as much as you think. Information about your budget and credit score rating should be available to your realtor so he or she can help you find property that actually works for you.
Always have a home evaluated or inspected before you ever agree to anything. Even if you aren't sure you want the property to rent, you can choose to have an inspector come out to tell if you the foundation is rotting or if the walls are infested with insects. Often the seller will perform this action and then supply the information to potential buyers, but you also have the right to bring in your own inspector if you want a second opinion. There are no returns if you purchase a home and find out it's not what it was listed as.
Don't underestimate the actual price to move and close a house. You will need a pretty large sum of cash. Discuss this cost with your realtor so you can be sure you have every loose end tied.

Graphic artist Peter Buchanan-Smith braved Friday's heat to help make a hand-blown glass buoy in front of a 2,200-degree Fahrenheit stove. He's one of several artists who, with the help of professional glassblowers, will try out their designs on glass even if they've never worked with the material before.
The glassmaking workshop is part of a traveling exhibit organized by the Corning Museum of Glass called GlassLab. The public is encouraged to watch the glassmaking performances from Saturday through July 29.
"The glassblowers are great," said Buchanan-Smith. "They're sort of like a combination of a mad scientist and a magician. I really wanted to challenge the glassblowers, so I wanted to give them a job that would excite them and get them inspired."
The Corning Museum of Glass has brought its state-of-the-art mobile glassmaking studio around the world for glassblowing performances and demonstrations. The studio includes a stove that produces temperatures upwards of 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit. That kind of heat melts stones of sand, ash and limestone into a molten soup, which is then gathered on a hollow pipe and expanded by blowing air through the pipe. Metal tools are used to shape the glass.
"It's extremely unusual," said Robert Cassetti, the creative director of the Corning Museum. "There have been mobile studios before, but we've really gone to school on how to do this and how to do this with very low energy consumption."
The advent of the small-scale studio is just one of the steps the Corning Museum is taking towards making glassworking more accessible to artists. The craft, which takes several years of practice to perfect, can be daunting. But by pairing expert glassblowing professionals with artists, GlassLab only asks that creative types bring their own unique designs to the performance.
"I think a lot of people who work with materials can relate to clay or wood or metal because it is something you can get your hands on," said Eric Meek, a 20-year-old glassmaker who works at the Corning Museum. "With glassmaking, it's difficult to have the opportunity to do that, so what we do is demystify glass for the designers. They bring new designs and new ideas and you never know what you're going to have to make."
Other artists who will try out their designs on glass at Governors Island include Eric Ku, James Victore, Mike Perry and Chris and Dominic Leong. Click here to see a schedule. See a slideshow of glassmaking below.

Getting started
Gas or electric ranges can give you fine performance. Serious chefs often prefer gas for the quick response and visual confirmation of a flame. But electric elements generally heat faster and maintain low heat more precisely. Dual-fuel ranges combine a gas cooktop with an electric oven though we've found no advantage in that combination. You'll also find induction ranges, which use an electromagnetic field to heat the pot or pan more quickly and effectively while leaving the cooktop surface cooler.
Climbing the social ladder
Most ordinary electric and gas ranges are 30 inches wide, while the huge pro-style gas models favored by decorators may span 36 inches or more. But more ordinary ranges now have beefy knobs, rugged grates, and stainless trim for far less money. In this range guide, we compare and contrast types and features.

Savannah Dietrich woke up with an ominous feeling. Her bra was out of kilter, her underwear off. The 16-year-old had spent the previous night, a lazy August evening in 2011, hanging out with friends at her father's house in Louisville, Kentucky, while he was away for work. Beer, vodka, and whiskey had been flowing. Dietrich had downed shots with two boys she knew casually, Will Frey and Austin Zehnder, both solid students and lacrosse players at Trinity, a prestigious Catholic school for boys. At some point, she had passed out. The last thing she remembers clearly is eating pizza rolls on the back porch.
As she lay in bed the following morning, she says, "I felt this complete uneasiness. But I was in denial. I forced myself to believe nothing bad had happened."
What Dietrich didn't know: The boys, both 16 at the time, had removed her bra and underwear and sexually abused her while she lay unconscious on the kitchen floor. (Dietrich asked Cosmopolitan not to divulge details of the abuse.) They had taken cell-phone pictures. And they were showing them to friends.
Dietrich remained in the dark for months, while her supposed friends snickered about the photos in school hallways. When she finally learned the truth, she says, "I felt like a toy, a sex toy, like I was put into a pornographic image against my will." And then she faced a new kind of assault: Friends of the boysand some of her own friendsmade a blizzard of cruel accusations on Facebook and in person. "They said I was drunk and making dumb decisions," says Dietrich, now 18. "They said I was a slut. They were trying to say I had consented. I was being called a liar."
But Dietrich didn't take it. She collected evidence and called the police. Her case would ignite a legal battle in which she would be accused of contempt of court for tweeting about the crime, defying a court order to stay silent. And as stories eerily similar to hers erupted across the national news, this petite, sandy-haired teenager began to feel she needed to speak out in support of all targets of sexual assault and social-media assault.
Dietrich picked a fight in a particularly toxic modern frontier, the place where retro attitudes about sexual assault in America intersect with sophisticated technology. Blaming the victim existed long before cell-phone cameras, but new technologies make it "much easier to intimidate and harass someone," says Jennifer Gentile Long, a former prosecutor and director of AEquitas, a women's legal advocacy group in Washington, D.C. For victims, there's a sense of losing control because photos, rumors, and other attacks spread at the speed of light. Technology becomes a powerful weapon for bullies, pushing invasion of privacy to a new level.
The consequences can be tragic. In Northern California this April, three boys were arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting and photographing 15-year-old Audrie Pott when she passed out at a party. Pott hanged herself after classmates saw the photos, according to her parents. In Canada, authorities in Nova Scotia recently reopened the case of 17-year-old Rehtaeh Parsons. Four boys allegedly raped and photographed her in late 2011 while she was at a house party. Parsons hanged herself this past April amid relentless online bullying, with peers calling her a slut, her family says. And most notoriously, in Steubenville, Ohio, last August, two high school football players raped a passed-out 16-year-old girl during a night of partying. Onlookers documented the scene with tweets, photos, and videos. In one, a male partygoer laughed about the victim, saying, "She is so raped right now."
Each case is more disturbing than the last. Yet, Long says, it could be that there is a silver lining to technology's role in rape. Photos and tweets can be used as evidence, as was the case in Steubenville. And as horrible as rape bullying is to witness, says Long, "it's unmasking for the public what's really going onhow these crimes are perpetrated and who the perpetrators are."
Things Get Bad
Before the night of the crime, Dietrich had a tumultuous sophomore year. She had transferred to a public school from a private one that her divorced mother and fathera web developer and construction foreman, respectivelycould no longer afford. She struggled to fit into the new scene. "I've always wanted people to like me, to be in the popular crowd," she says. She hung out with her old private-school pals, meeting up at house parties and along the banks of the Ohio River. She also had a boyfriend, who went to another private school for boys.
In the weeks after that lost August night, she noticed that some of her friends seemed distant, treating her "like an untouchable," she says. "I thought it was weird that a lot of friends, especially some of my very best guy friends, just stopped talking to me. It really hurt."
In late November, she finally got a tip-off. A male friend said he had heard rumors that there were naked photos of her. Dietrich said the gossip couldn't be trueshe had never posed for anyone. Then her thoughts raced back to that morning after her house party. Suddenly, she says, "I felt exposed and humiliated. It's my body that's out there. I should have the right to show people my own body."
"Thanks for ruining my life," she texted Frey.
Then, to Zehnder: "I need to talk to you I have not stopped crying since I heard."
After a flurry of texts, both boys admitted to photographing her, but they kept the details fuzzy. So Dietrich launched an investigation, texting people she knew. Several, including two close female friends, told her they had seen photos on one of the boys' phones. They had told the boys to delete the photos but didn't inform Dietrich at the time because, she says, "they thought they were protecting me. They were embarrassed for me."
Eventually, she realized there had been both nudity and abuse. She saved the texts as evidence. Then she geared up to tell her parents and the police. A few friends stuck by her, as did her boyfriend, but others attacked. "They were like, 'This was all just a stupid mistake,'" she says. "They saw me as being overdramatic."
As the backlash grew, Dietrich cried constantly. "At night, I closed my eyes and imagined the photos," she says with a slight Kentucky lilt. "My breasts being exposed, that's one degree; my vagina, that's a whole different level. It's too private. This is my body, my sanctuary, meand people were laughing at it." She pauses, then adds, "I felt so betrayed. Out of everyone who saw the photos, not one person told methis was such a big thing for me. I honestly wanted to kill myself."
Why Would Anyone Gang Up on a Victim?
Both sexes often hold antiquated notions about the crime, says Katherine Hull, spokesperson for the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network. People think women invite rape by wearing skimpy clothes or drinking. And many people don't realize, or don't want to believe, that most sexual assaultsan estimated two-thirdsare committed by someone the victim knows.
It makes people feel unsafe to believe that a man in their social circle could be capable of such crimes, says clinical psychologist Catherine Steiner-Adair, EdD, author of The Big Disconnect. "It's like you have a predator in your family, [especially if the accused is] someone you've grown up with since kindergarten."
Dietrich thinks that was the root of the backlash she faced. "It's a lot easier to call the girl a slut than to believe the guys are that messed up," she says. "These are people you eat lunch with, you party withyou don't want to see them in that light."
There's also a gang mentality. "If you gang up on someone else, you think it won't happen to you," says Steiner-Adair, adding, "it's cool to be cruel onlinethe more you can humiliate someone, the more social capital you get." And victim-blamers are finding many uses for technology. When British soccer player Ched Evans was convicted of rape last year, nine people were fined by the court for outing the victim on Facebook and Twitter, one reportedly calling her a "money-grabbing slut." In Brooklyn last December, when a man went on trial for sexually abusing a girl in his Orthodox Jewish community, four men took photos of the victim on the witness stand, drawing charges of criminal contempt.
Collegeswith their high rates of both social media and sexual assaultcan be a particular minefield. And women say that campus officials aren't always on their side when things blow up. Students have filed complaints with the Department of Education against a rash of schoolsmost recently, Occidental, Swarthmore, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hillalleging poor treatment of women who report sexual assault. In New Hampshire, after students at Dartmouth staged a protest about campus sexual assault and other problems, they reportedly received anonymous online threats of rape.

Briefs – July 17
Salvation Army sending students back to school in style
Thanks to Mt. Lebanon schools, Model Cleaners and South Hills Beauty Academy, South Hills' school kids from Mt. Washington to Library, will be going back to school in style. On Aug. 17, The Salvation Army Pittsburgh Temple Corps Worship and Service Center will host a special event at its 1060 McNeilly Road facility.
Registered children will receive free like-new backpacks filled with school supplies and complementary haircuts. "Our Advisory Board had the idea to ask the Mt. Lebanon School District to do a backpack collection and all 10 schools participated," said Major Paul Moore, Salvation Army Pittsburgh Temple Corps Worship and Service Center Commanding Officer. "Model Cleaners graciously agreed to clean the donated packs at no charge. And, South Hills Beauty Academy has a history of serving our families in need. It is a win/win for everyone."
Applications will be accepted until Aug. 9 by Mary Anne G. McFeely, MSW, Pittsburgh Temple Corps Worship and Service Center Social Services director at 412-207-2127 or email@example.com. School-age children from preschool through grade 12 who reside in the South Hills area are welcome.
Videos aim to educate Pennsylvanians on pedestrian safety
PennDOT has produced four new videos aimed at educating children, motorists and parents about pedestrian safety.
The videos can be viewed on the department's YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/pennsylvaniaDOT.
Each video targets different audiences at various stages of learning pedestrian safety or driving near pedestrians. The videos are intended primarily for parents of elementary school students, elementary-school students, middle-school students and young or first-time drivers.
The videos for elementary- and middle-school students explain walking signals and scenarios, stress safe walking behaviors and reinforce who should accompany them. The video for parents demonstrates walking safety and emphasizes the importance of modeling safe behaviors for their children. Younger drivers are shown that with their driving freedom comes the responsibility of watching for travelers of all types, especially in school zones.
PennDOT data shows that in the past five years, there were 4,558 pedestrian injuries and 743 pedestrians lost their lives in Pennsylvania traffic crashes. In that same time period, there were 22,144 reported crashes involving pedestrians.
For more information on pedestrian safety in Pennsylvania, visit www.JustDrivePA.com.
Thyroid cancer survivors sought
The Butterfly Bandits is looking for thyroid cancer survivors to participate in the butterfly release dedication at PNC Park on Sept. 15.
On that day, the Pittsburgh Pirates will hold a Thyroid Cancer Awareness Fundraiser: Tailgate and Cheer for a Cure to support research and bring awareness to the disease. Email firstname.lastname@example.com for details.

As I say a fond farewell to 2012 it's fun and poignant to look back at the best and the worst of this last year. Being a beauty writer it is particularly interesting for me to look back at the best and worst in beauty trends. From the moments of "I love this look so much I will continue to wear it in 2013", to the cringe inducing reflections of "why, why, would anyone wear that color on their face?" Let's reminisce together. After reading, by all means, let me know what your thoughts are on what the best or worst of this year was.
I'm going to start with the worst this year had to offer, so I can end this article on a positive note.
1. Pastel Ombre Hair: As if regular ombre hair wasn't enough for the hipper than hip, it went a step further into the rainbow color spectrum. Initially I was open to it, but I am sorry to say that this trend went from refreshingly different to "God if I have to see another pastel ombre hair picture on Pinterest I will throw my computer out a window." I may exaggerate, but only a little. The rainbow hair look that is usually only sported by the truly brave became fashion mainstream when models strutted the runways with pastel tinged streaks. I don't care that models at Chanel 2013 cruise collection rocked pastel bobs I say this trend needs to be left in 2012!
2. Crayola Color Eyeliner: Sure, bright color makeup can be fun. Case in point; the ultra flattering fuchsia lipstick that every celebutante has been wearing lately. However, I think a line needs to be drawn between bright and "I was just colored on with Crayola markers." The bright blue eyeliner seen at fall shows such as Anna Sui or the electric yellow eyeliner seen at Peter Som seem juvenile and a little clownish. Truly, the only time your makeup should be painted on in primary colors is for Halloween or the circus.
Ok, now that all that terrible stuff is behind us, I want to focus on the trends I remember fondly and will probably continue to wear in 2013.
1. Soft Bouncy Waves: This one to me seems self explanatory. Voluminous hair, soft curly tendrils, not a lot of product. It is hair Nirvana. Not only is this look beautiful, but it is fairly easy to achieve. You just need a little heat protectant spray and a large barrel curling iron (also some dexterity and little practice). I love this look so much that I know I will continue to rock into 2013, until I find a new trend that catches my eye.
2. Red Lips: Is it a trend if it is continuously reused to the point of being a classic. Yes and no. Confused yet? Ok, so red lips make an appearance at least once a year and is touted as the trend of a particular season. This year was no exception with red lips splashed all over the spring 2012 shows. A range of red of red lips could be seen on the models at Christian Dior, Jason Wu, and Yves Saint Laurent. Red can be trendy (remember when orange-red had a hot moment this year), but it can also be a classic that can amp up any beauty look. The trick to making red not seem so scary is to find the right red for you. If you do nothing else this year, find a red lipstick that makes you feel like one sexy ahem…. you know.
Did I miss any great or deplorable beauty trends?

Summary of Women Explorers Summary of Women Explorers Reviews for Women Explorers An Excerpt from Women Explorers
Meet ten inspiring women whose passions for exploration made them push the boundaries
Though most people have heard of explorers like Henry Hudson and Christopher Columbus, few have heard names like Nellie Cashman and Annie Smith Peck. Unfortunately, most of the brave women explorers have never made it into history books because they lived in times when it was taboo for women to go off on their own. Luckily, the daring women in this book didn't let those taboos slow them down as they climbed treacherous mountains, studied Aboriginal cultures, and lived with Pygmy tribes!
With engaging text and bold illustrations, Women Explorers will finally properly introduce these adventurous women to the world.
"Cummins masterfully includ[es] interesting details . . . Informative and entertaining." — School Library Journal
"The figures included in the book are worth remembering not just because they were women but because they were remarkable adventure-seekers and barrier-breakers." — Booklist
"In an engaging, informative style, Cummins highlights fascinating facts about these feisty females 'who conquered the unknown.'" — Kirkus

Friday, April 25, 2014
I was disappointed to learn of the state's (may I say, Gov. LePage's) decision to select a laptop running Windows 8, the HP ProBook 4440 ("Maine picks laptops -- but not Apples," April 28).
Students Jessy Brewer, left, and Kiara Neal work on their laptops at King Middle School in Portland in 2012. Apple's exclusive contract to provide laptops to Maine middle school students is coming to an end. Readers are skeptical about the move to HP and Windows 8.
2012 File Photo/Gregory Rec
It is not so much that the Windows or the Mac OS is better or worse (though Windows 8 has not yet been adopted widely in the business world).
And it is not that the evaluation committee apparently favored a different laptop.
Rather, it is the short-sighted decision to change horses in midstream.
Years have been invested in teacher professional development on the Mac platform, and now teachers will have to learn an entirely new (and not simple) OS.
I have worked in teacher professional development for a national nonprofit educational institution for 20 years, and I know it is not a trivial thing to change platforms like this.
I find it hard to believe that the Department of Education did not lobby hard in favor of sticking with the Mac platform.
The statements being made that students need to encounter the kind of operating system being used in the business world are misleading. By the time these students get to their first job using a computer, it will have an entirely different operating system.
Whatever "savings" being hoped for from a cheaper machine ($33 per laptop) will be eaten up many times over by the adjustments necessary in schools.
Many school systems that can afford to stick with their Macs will simply pay the extra money and do so.
All it really means is that the state will not reimburse them as much as if the Apple MacBook Air had been chosen.
"Penny-wise and pound-foolish" is the best way to describe the state's decision.
Once again, Maine teachers and students have not been well served.
Harold McWilliams
Few recent operating systems have inspired more contempt from users than Windows 8.
It is an illogical choice as the Maine Learning Technology Initiative platform.
"Epic fail," according to Forbes magazine, as recently as March 14.
The decision to purchase laptops not currently supported by school IT infrastructure and personnel could potentially cost more than the savings realized by awarding the contract to the less-expensive HP machines.
These extra costs will be passed to the districts by the state.
The state will have saved a penny on the HP machines while forcing the districts to spend a pound on infrastructure and support changes.
Eric Hager
Reader urges Mainers to support Clean Elections
This has been a huge couple of weeks for the movement to address the problem of money in politics.
Last week, we Mainers stood up and declared our intention to help overturn many key provisions of the notorious Citizens United ruling, becoming the 13th state to do so ("Maine asks Congress to halt unlimited special interest campaign spending," April 30).
I am extremely proud of our elected representatives, who have emerged in a rare demonstration of multipartisanship to reject the notion that money equals speech in our election system. And I am proud of us as voters, because despite reduced participation in the Clean Election program and record-shattering sums of money spent on privately funded races, we overwhelmingly elected Clean Election candidates in 2012.
This week, we have a chance to strengthen our own model Clean Election program and increase transparency in our legislative and gubernatorial elections with two bills in front of the Joint Standing Committee of Veterans and Legal Affairs.
